Easy to install, no delay in start up, the bulb comes on with no flickering. Nicer to have the bulb in an overhead fluorescent fixture than as an lamp on a desk. My birbs are happier now and their feathers have perked up again.

It gives me the glow on my breezeway that i want for halloween. Only con is they don't dim as i was trying to make them a bit spookier.

Top half of bulb is white, which results in a pastel of the color of the bulb. Not as green as portrayed in these pictures. These look more light pink not purple.

It's so bright it feels like a high-powered blacklight. Horrible color for room lighting. Not dimmable on the packaging.
